Blackboard is a richly complex computer application that allows you to experience the same great education you would receive in class, but from anywhere in the world. You simply "go to campus" by visiting the CSUEB Blackboard portal and logging in with your NetID and password. Once you've logged in, you’ll see all the classes you have enrolled in for the current quarter. To "go to" each class, simply click on the name of the course. You will find announcements, a syllabus, weekly assignments, readings, a place for groups to meet, links to other websites, and information on how to hand in your assignments and participate in class discussions.
